We’re pleased to announce the publication of a comprehensive resource on the Jackson Lewis website:

Navigating the California Consumer Privacy Act: 30+ Essential FAQs for Covered Businesses, Including Clarifying Regulations Effective 1.1.26.

With California’s updated CCPA regulations now in effect as of January 1, 2026, businesses face expanded compliance requirements in several critical areas. The FAQs summarize key provisions in the statute and regulations, providing straightforward analysis for some of the most pressing questions.

Specifically, the FAQs cover a range of issues from fundamental questions about which businesses are covered and what personal information is protected, to detailed explanations of the new requirements around automated decision-making technology (ADMT), risk assessments, and cybersecurity audits. Readers will find practical guidance on meeting their notice obligations, responding to consumer requests, and implementing the technical and organizational safeguards needed to protect personal information.

Whether you’re assessing your organization’s compliance status for the first time or updating your program to reflect the latest regulatory changes, these FAQs offer actionable insights to help navigate this complex landscape.

Damon W. Silver is a principal in the New York City, New York, office of Jackson Lewis P.C. and co-leader of the firm’s Privacy, AI & Cybersecurity practice group. He is a Certified Information Privacy Professional (CIPP/US).

Damon helps clients across various industries—with a focus on financial services, healthcare, and education—handle their data safely. He works with them to pragmatically navigate the challenges they face from cyberattacks, technological developments including AI, a fast-evolving data privacy and security legal compliance landscape, and an active and innovative plaintiffs’ bar.

Damon recognizes that needs vary from one client to the next. Large, mature organizations, for instance, may need assistance managing multi-jurisdictional and multi-faceted compliance obligations. Others may be in a stage of development where their greatest need is to triage what must be done now and what can more safely be left for later. Damon takes the time to understand each client’s circumstances and priorities and then works with it to develop tailored approaches to effectively managing risk without unnecessarily hindering business operations.
